What happened

ESPN RECAP

Dylan Sampson rushes for 141 yards and 2 TDs to lead No. 7 Tennessee past Kentucky 28-18

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- , Dylan Sampson rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns to lead No. 7 Tennessee to a 28-18 victory over Kentucky Saturday night. Tight end Miles Kitselman caught six passes for 97 yards and a touchdown for the Volunteers (7-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) as they won their third straight and kept their College Football playoff hopes alive. “We don't take any win for granted,” Tennessee coach Josh Heupel said. “Every week is its own season. You've gotta play smart football and tie it all together.” The Wildcats (3-5, 1-6) lost their fourth straight game after five starters were out with injuries. During the game, receiver Barion Brown and quarterback Brock Vandagriff were also hurt. “We finished the game down 10 starters,” Kentucky coach Mark Stoops said.
